*** PERSISTENCIA IS CURRENTLY ON HIATUS. WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING
MANUSCRIPTS, NOR ARE WE SHIPPING BACK COPIES OF OLD TITLES. ***

While there is no perfect fit for PERSISTENCIA, we are inclined towards
minimalism, folk and Americana, concrete visual poetry, and other styles which seek to cast light on the bizarre, low,
and kitschy elements of our culture. We also have an eye for "the world within our world"; the Surrealist tradition is
valued here.

Above and beyond all else, we are looking for poets who refuse
to buy into fads or make their work part of a consumer or scene friendly trend.

Chapbook, broadside, and pamphlet manuscripts are welcome. Submissions
should be sent in a format which can be opened using MSWord. Please include a cover letter and full contact information.
For non-electronic submissions, please touch base with us first via e-mail.
